Egypt Scarabäus
Images of the sacred pill turner (Scarabaeus sacer) in ancient Egyptian art (painting, sculpture and jewelry) are referred to as scarabs. The ancient Egyptian name for the scarab was cheperer. Depending on the hieroglyphic spelling, the scarab beetle, dung beetle, the god Chepre (also Chepri) or a piece of jewelry in the form of a scarab was meant.
The liberation and rapid reproduction of this beetle in the Nile mud after the resignation of the Nile led to the opinion that it arises without reproduction, which is why it was considered a symbol of creativity. In its almost round shape, in the shiny, gold shimmering color of the wing-coverts, one found a resemblance to the shape and shine of the sun, the next visible cause of education, and was consecrated a divine veneration (e.g. as the embodiment of the deity Chepre). The scarab's behavior of rolling dung balls in front of it made a reference to Re and his journey across the sky in the solar barge.
